Mizzou RPI is #18 where as Auburn is #31..... we are far from hosting and Clemson is the better draw unless you want FSU again!!! Would like to be there but not going.... I would give up the weak schedule for a few more losses to have a higher RPI and possible chance to host a regional..... just saying!!! My opinion and I know there are those that disagree....

I hope we schedule tougher next year, especially now that we’ve seen a glimpse at what the talent on this team is capable of. We have to stop scheduling so many teams that are 200+ in the rpi (Alabama State, NCA&T, Delaware State, Niagara). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember this was a contract year therefore the early bombshell and awesome record helped CMD to a 4 year contract extension. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jad0003 492 Posted May 15, 2022 Share Posted May 15, 2022 We have a tough regional with Clemson and Louisiana. However, I am glad we do not have to go to FSU because that regional is brutal. I do think we have a small chance to make it out of the regional, but we will have to come to play multiple days I. A row. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AUBwins 10,281 Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 Dang how did Louisiana end up as a 3? Must have lost a good bit down the stretch. They always have a tough schedule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jad0003 492 Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 Louisiana is coached by Gerry Glasco, Dean’s original choice for hitting coach at Auburn when he took over. They are a young team with pretty good pitching, lead by Kentucky transfer Megan Schorman, freshman Sam Landry, and Kendra Lamb. They have very solid hitting, which is expected with Glasco as hitting coach. In terms of their schedule, they beat the majority of teams they were supposed to beat, but they lost a few head scratchers mid season (Georgia State, Georgia Southern, and App State). Texas is their best win, but they lost two other games to them. They also lost two games to both LSU and Bama. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OlderWhiskey 997 Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 The Cajuns went 45-11 this year. Being in the Sun Belt, they don't build much RPI. The knock on them was always their schedule (at least the past few years). This year, they lost twice to Alabama, twice to LSU and twice to Texas. They did beat Texas once. They beat UAB 23-0 in one game, but also lost games to Georgia Southern and Georgia State. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUBwins 10,281 Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 Yea their conference schedule is typically bad except the years that South Alabama was around the top 10 as well. They've usually tried making up for it with their OOC tourneys etc. But losing those lower Sunbelt games mid year will definitely hurt seeding.

Jad0003 492 Posted May 18, 2022 Share Posted May 18, 2022 Glasco tested positive for COVID and did not travel to Clemson with the team today. I am unsure how they handled practice this week or the timeline on the positive test. I assume if he gets a negative test in the next few days Louisiana will fly him up there.

That's a bad time for that to happen. Hope he's doing fine. Louisiana does have a 13 game winning streak and 22 of last 23. So they are definitely hot at the moment.
